Is Sniffspot safe to use?
Sniffspot is designed to be safe to use, compared to public dog parks and other alternatives that are not designed with safety in mind.
We provide a number of security features that are standard in the industry, used by companies such as Airbnb and Uber.
- All users are verified via credit card and fraud checks.
- Hosts and guests can verify information to increase trust with other users. Guests currently can verify email and phone; hosts can verify identity, email and phone.
- We also require for all dogs to have current vaccinations and flea prevention to minimize the risk of disease and illness
- Guests need to agree to our waiver before using, which indemnifies hosts.
- All guests are required to agree to the rules before booking. If guests are not good members of our community, you can ban them from your spot. For repeated infractions, we may remove guests from our community all together.
- User privacy is protected by publicly displaying only first names and last initials. Please note that while we do not disclose personally identifiable information of users to other users, we do cooperate fully with law enforcement investigations when we are contacted directly.
- Lastly, we provide coverage in case a property is damaged and we provide 3rd party liability claim protection through our $1M Host Protection Insurance.
